  • A commercial online service is one that delivers vast and well-organized information within its own proprietary computer network, as well as a countrywide computer network (so that users can dial-in to a local telephone number).
  • A search engine, an e-commerce site, an online banking site, a health site, an official government site, social media, a wiki, or a Usenet forum are all examples of online service providers (OSPs).
  • Online services give a platform for users to communicate with one another, whether by exchanging e-mail messages or attending online conferences (forums). Furthermore, the service can connect customers with a virtually infinite number of third-party information suppliers.
